Unlocked Replacement PCB v1.1 vs ****** Freedom PCB

[wraith118]

Can anyone tell me the difference between the Unlocked Replacement PCB v1.1 and the ****** Freedom PCB?

 

[Fisticuffs]

Yea the TX Unlocked PCB v1.1 is a quality product

Manufacture and personal preference

The freedom board has one advantage you don't have to open the console to reflash

One thing I will tell you is that the support here for TX product is second to none and the quality of the materials and engineering is without question, I would recommend the TX product every time.

So, other than different manufacturers and personal preference, the only difference between the two pcb's is that the freedom board can be used without opening the console (after installing). The reason I'm asking is because on the non TX board, in their description, it states that it can be used on boards that are either winbond or mxic. Is that true for both?

You'd need to check with ****** for their specs - it's not our product.

the main differences is price and the freedom one will get no support on this forum.
when it goes tits up balls you will be on your own

Exactly :biggrin: take note what these guys say they know what they talking about

the main differences is the best quality of the TX PCB

My main concern was if the pcb on my lite-on was a winbond, if I can still use the tx pcb? Or due to the new 1175 pcb coming out, does it not make any difference anymore?

you're replacing the pcb so whether it's winbond or not makes no difference...never did ..that's the whole point of a replaceable PCB

Finally, someone steps up and gives a straight answer. Thank you talby71. That's all I really needed to know.

You need to know which drive you have in your Slim. If you have a Liteon DG-16D4S with 9504, 0225, 0401 & 1071 fw revisions Supports both MCIX and Winbond. Follow Ubergeeks guide and you should be fine.
